Long Exposure Waves [212/366]

Day 212.

 

Our final day on Nantucket (a week ago tomorrow). We were leaving on the noon ferry to Hyannis, but still had time for a swim and some photography in the morning. I broke out my 10-stop ND filter to play around with some long exposure shots. This, and the first picture in comments, were the best of them. I still have a lot to learn about this style of photography, but it was a lot of fun to play with. A lot of times I found that a very long exposure gave less interesting results than something like this that is a 5 second exposure, as the very long exposure smoothed everything out too much. Any comments or tips are very welcome.
